Orb 2.2GB Ultra SCSI Portable Drive Model ORB2SE09 uses removable “disks” similar to a Zip or Jaz. This is great for organizing your files or as backups because you can have as many 2.2GB disks as you need or want!

This new package contains:

• ORB 2.2GB Drive
• 2.2GB Disk
• Interface Cable (HD50-HD50)
• Power Supply
• User Manual
• Installation Software
• ORB Tools Software

Works with any Macintosh or Apple IIGS with a SCSI port or SCSI interface card.
Note that the SCSI cable included with this version ORB drive is a HD50 or SCSI-2. Unless you have an interface card in your Mac that has this external port, you will need a DB25 to HD50 adapter or cable.

This drive will also work with Windows 3.1, 95, and 98. Probably newer systems as well

This page contains the most common SCSI cables that will plug into the built in 30 pin square port on your PowerBook. This connector was only ever used on PowerBooks starting with the PowerBook 100 and ending with the Lombard G3. The connector for this port is referred to as HDI-30, and the port is female – it needs a cable with pins sticking out (male).

These SCSI cables are used to connect to scanners, external CD Drives and external hard drives – including Zip, Jaz, Orb and others.

HDI-30 – DB25 M/M: Most Scanners and some of the early external hard drive manufacturers such as LaCie used the DB25 pin ports on their devices.

HDI-30 – CN50 M/M: Most external CD Drives and hard drives have the CN50 (Centronics) ports.

HDI-30 to HD50 M/M: Some external drives are SCSI 2 devices and need this connector. (This connector is also referred to as HDB50, MD50, Micro 50, Mini D50)

Select below, all are less than 2′ long. Colors will vary between light gray and dark gray depending on stock. Apple Branded in stock are light gray.

SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 Cables are found here.

50 pin SCSI interface. Fast SCSI or SCSI-2. All were pulled from LaCie External hard drive cases prior to coming to me. The drives have been wiped and tested. Most are formatted with Silverlining and are suitable as either an internal or an external drive for your Mac.

Add a SCSI 3 drive inside your Mac. This adapter connects a SCSI-3 internal hard drive with 68-Pin Female Connector to an internal IDC-50 Pin Female Ribbon cable. These are new in the package.

This page contains the most common SCSI cables that will plug into the built in 25 pin port on your Macintosh (Plus through Beige G3) or Apple II (IIe & IIGS with a SCSI Card). The connector for this port is referred to as DB25, and the port is female – it needs a cable with pins sticking out (male).

These SCSI cables are used to connect to scanners, external CD Drives and external hard drives – including Zip, Jaz, Orb and others.

Select below: All are used cables except some CN50-CN50.

A) DB25 – DB25 M/M Cable: Most Scanners, Zip Drives and some of the early external hard drive manufacturers such as LaCie used the 25 pin ports on their devices. Also used for chaining 2 or more drives together.

B) DB25 – CN50 M/M Cable: Most external CD Drives and hard drives have the CN50 (Centronics) ports.

C) CN50 – CN50 M/M Cable. Centronics 50. Used to chain 2 or more drives together.
D) CN50 – CN50 M/M Cable – NEW!

E) CN50 M – CN50 F Cable. Centronics 50 Extension cable

While all can range from 18” to 6’ , it is easiest for me to list them as 3’ and under (most are less than 2′), and 4-6’. From a variety of manufactures, colors can be white, gray or beige.

SCSI-2 and SCSI-3 Cables are found here.

Internal SCSI expansion cards and adapters let you add SCSI 2 or SCSI 3 drives to your Mac – both internal and external. These are called many names, but I’ll go with the shortest – HD50 or HD68. Also can be MD50, Micro 50, Mini D50 or MD68, Micro 68, Mini D68, Ultrawide, Ultra2, LVD.

SCSI-2 devices have the 50 pin HD50 ports (approx 1-3/8” wide). Most, if not all, use a latch mechanism instead of thumbscrews.

SCSI-3 devices have the 68 pin HD68 ports (approx 1-7/8” wide). Some use a latch mechanism and some use the traditional screws.

New cables are available in 3’ or 6’ lengths. Used cables can be less than 3′ or 4-6′. Some have metal ends. Colors vary.

Hard drives from Seagate, Connor, IBM, Quantum and more. These drives have a 50 pin SCSI interface. Can be used as an internal drive or put in an external enclosure. Termination and jumpers will be different for each.

***Photo is representative and NOT necessarily the one you will receive***

Even though many of these are identical to the Apple branded drives, because they didn’t originally come inside a Macintosh and have an Apple label, Apple’s hard drive utilities refuse to work with them. *These drives have been formatted with Silverlining, FWB Hard Disk Toolkit, or modifications of Apple’s HD SC Setup or Drive Setup.* What that means is that they should work as a startup drive inside or outside of your Mac. **Jumper and termination may need to be set or changed for internal or external use.** Jumpers and termination specs for most drives can be found at stason.org.

All have been wiped, sanitized* and thoroughly tested on a Mac. Any software on any drive is not part of the sale – you are simply purchasing a hard drive from me. *In some cases the sanitized contents were retained and reinstalled as pre-prep for another Mac or it could mean loaded from scratch with partitions and a bunch of stuff installed – I have a few that came in that way.

All are 3.5”
-Height – unless noted, these are less than 1” tall – like more current desktop hard drives
-HH are approx 42mm (1-5/8”) tall. Most computers have room for these and many Apple drives were also tall.
-Empty means formatted and nothing installed.
-New means new OS installed.
-A few drives may have their own page and have a link.

Complete package includes the floppy drive, QuickStart Card, CD and registration card all in the original box. Part of the box flap is missing, so this may have been a customer returns back in the day. Drive has been tested to read and write on OS 10.4 and truly looks like a brand new drive.

Zip Drive 100 MB, internal ide/ata/atapi interface. Power Mac G3, G4 and any Mac with an internal IDE/ATA interface and a bay to put it in. Apple 661-2545, 661-2024, 661-2161, 655-0560, 655-0011, 655T0011. Made by either Iomega or Matsushita.

A Zip Drive in your Mac gives you the ability to use and re-use removable 100MB Zip Disks. Introduced in the Mid ’90’s, the Zip Drive became available as optional or standard equipment on some PowerPC Power Macintosh’s. Note that this is a 50 pin SCSI drive and requires an internal SCSI interface. If you’re not sure, count the pins on the connector.

The Iomega Model number is Z100Si. The identical Apple branded Zip Drives also contain this model number as well as the Apple Part Number 665-0537 or 655-0489. The drive you receive may or may not be Apple branded.

Available in blue or white (Epson model), this Zip Drive will organize your files using removable 100MB disks (not included) that are slightly larger than a 3.5″ floppy disk in size. This drive uses a SCSI interface and will work anywhere in your SCSI chain. With an operating system installed on a Zip Disk, your Mac or Apple IIGS can boot from this drive! You can even share or transfer files between Macs, or between a Mac and an Apple IIGS. The Apple IIGS does not need drivers, Later Mac systems, such as OS 9 have the drivers built in to the operating system, but earlier OS’s such as System 6 or 7 will need Zip drivers. Early drivers can be found at the Mac Driver Museum: http://www.macdrivermuseum.net/disk.shtml

Zip Drives are available without the SCSI cable and power supply if you are replacing a bad drive.

Zip Disk(s) are not included but are available here.
